Thanks for the part & price info. I cant wait to to do this. I think we also might look into having those plastic pieces painted (along with the underside of my hood), to match my paint...( more shiny etc lol)
As I showed my husband the pictures you posted, it was funny to see his reaction to be nearly indentical to mine when I scrolled up and showed him the one that shows you drilling that first hole! He grabbed his heart & sighed! lol My god, im going to need some drugs or something before I could make that first cut! Were you nervous?
I noticed in the one picture, it shows all the metal shavings on the car from cutting it. Were you not worried about these little shavings, sliding, blowing..etc..across the hood and scratching it? You are one brave man lol Braver than me!
